When I press the power button, the three lights go out for a second and then come back on, but the drive doesnt spin and nothing indicating its starting occurs. If I hold the power button the lights just flash green, and still nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is this on battery or AC adapter power? The AC adapter is always the first thing I look at, then the power jack.

I offer a DVD Tutorial Video on how to open and repair Laptops. The DVD works with almost every model as it shows the techniques rather than specifics and works very well. It basically guides you around the Laptop and show how to open and repair it. It shows hints and tips and how to replace the DC Socket, Remove hard drive, CPU, DVD ROM and upgrades. Very useful tips on how to arrange the screws etc. The Video is very clear and is an overhead View with close up.
Other Tips can be found at: www.powerjackrepair.com and is very reasonably priced. Check out the Diagnostics Page.
